Where does he lay out those criteria, Connie? I don't see it in the introduction post.
Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

You know, my unpacking might be going better if I weren't okay with living in disarray.
substitute cleaning for unpacking and it could be me!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't get what's wrong with that list. Is he supposed to like what I like?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, he just has the X-Files on there because he's doing the alphabet.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Me too. Or i might just be more stressed, hard to say. I've only lived in this house for not quite 5 years, i'm sure I'll finish unpacking eventually.
BTW, I can probably abandon my disarray and not-yet-put-together furniture to help assemble some of yours at some point.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Wow, that was a crazy tennis match.
It really was. Best tennis we're likely to see this year.
One interesting piece of trivia they mentioned: the semi between Nadal and Federer is the first match ever where both players have won at least ten Grand Slam titles. (Nadal's on ten, Federer sixteen.)

My neighbor's band was playing "Message in a Bottle" for a few hours. Now they seem to be trying to work out some chord sequence, but I don't recognize it -- they keep playing about three measures of something, then stopping, then playing it again with something slightly changed, and so on.

Oh, ha!! I didn't catch that. That makes much more sense.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

OOH. I sense more community watching in the near future.
Once I figure out which of the things I bought need two people, I will totes take you up on that.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Gray Porch Cat is balanced carefully on the back of the iron chair, staring in the window at me, plucking at the screen, and meowing. *sigh* He's fine, you know. The weather is great, there's food and water and warm places to sleep. But I think he's lonesome.
Tomorrow his fuzzy butt goes back in the box and he goes to the vet for his last shots and to reassure me that he doesn't have something bad he could give to Leo and Percy. Then he'll come inside, and my household will be disrupted for days while we all figure out what to do with each other.
They playfight through the screen door, so they already know each other. That'll be a help.
